First Screens For The Wolf Among UsBased on the comic Fables, Telltale's next series starts this summer.05.08.13 - 5:57 PM

Telltale Games, most recently known for their video game adaptations of The Walking Dead and Back to the Future, have another episodic series in the works. Based on DC's comic book series Fables - which brings together many fairy tale characters such as Snow White, the Big Bad Wolf, and Pinocchio in the real world - The Wolf Among Us puts the wolf in the hands of the player. Well, sort of. Bigby Wolf is a now-human New York sheriff who actually was the Big Bad Wolf at one point. Now, exiled from the land of fairy tales, he works in secret for Snow White, ensuring that the mythical types (such as himself, the Three Little Pigs and Mr. Toad) aren't discovered in our world. The story will take place before that of the comics.

The Wolf Among Us is set to begin releasing in episodes this summer on Xbox Live, PlayStation Network and digital distribution outlets for PC and Mac, with other platforms not yet announced. You can check out the first screenshots below, and stay tuned for more info!
